St. Lucia Private Bamboo Rafting Experience

Ahmed was amazing. Taught us a lot about the island as well as locals houses that we passed along the way! He even caught a crab!

My wife and I visited during our honeymoon and absolutely loved the bamboo rafting experience. From start to finish, everything was exceptionally well organised. A special mention goes to our captain, Dr Love, who was fantastic. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the local area, shared lots of interesting information throughout the tour, and kept us entertained with his great sense of humour and riddles. He was friendly, welcoming, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The entire excursion was seamless. Our driver was excellent and even stopped at a beautiful viewpoint overlooking Castries so we could take some stunning photos along the way. If you’re looking for a peaceful, scenic, and authentic St Lucian experience, I couldn’t recommend this highly enough. A real highlight of our honeymoon.

It's a relaxing smooth ride down the Roseau River, very enjoyable. Stop at a small souvenir shop over on the side of the shore. Highly recommended!!

We enjoyed our Bamboo River Rafting Excursion on the Roseau River in St Luica We booked directly with Viator. Some of the advantages of booking directly with Viator includes the following: ✅️ Transparent Pricing.  ✅️ They provided 1st class transportation to and from our resort to our excursion. ✅️Detailed List of everything that's included and what isn't. ✅️Excellent customer service!

If you’re in St Lucia, book your bamboo rafting experience with Viator! Please tell them “ Tinsley Tidbits” sent you! Thank me later  🇱🇨

Unfortunately for us it was raining heavily for our whole ride down the river. It stopped when we were at the beach and we were treated to a rainbow. It is a very short ride for the cost. You can be waiting for the motor boat for a long time to be towed back to the beginning.

We had so much fun! Captain D was great. The river was so calm and serene and it was another aspect of St. Lucian beauty we got to see.

Wear water shoes and relax. Expect a great slow ride down the river to the sea. Amad aka Captain was a knowledgeable and friendly guide.

Fun, leisurely raft ride down the river with a local guide. Interesting and fun! Our raft guide was Joe. He was so nice and full of information!

Gilbert was great and informative. He gave great information about things along the river. He showed us Old McDonald the farmer and Bob the Builder.

Gain all your local knowledge of nature from a local! A very relaxing ride down the river and a tasty meal at a local eatery. Highly recommend this!
